How Do Hard Drives Work?

[@IntergalacticSpaceKitten]

I think it's mind blowing that we as humans were able to figure all this shit out and put it together, AND get it to work. It's impressive.

[@H3Vtux]

Thank you! That means a lot to us humans coming from an intergalactic space kitten.

[@frozen_tortus]

I watched couple of videos about this subject, and you explained the subject far better then some professor here. Thank you.

[@Halcon_Sierreno]

How do those professors explain things?

[@jroob]

You do a wonderful job of simplifying these concepts! I now have a solid understanding of things that were completely foreign to me just a few hours ago -- thank you!

[@H3Vtux]

Thank you, this is exactly what i'm going for. Stay tuned!

I've come around this after watching the video in which you explained the binary system and must say, as many approve too, that you do a great job at explaining. Im going to proceed watching the other explanatory videos, highly wanting to learn and understand more abour this topic in a clear way.

[@BatJeff]

Going to school for IT and just found your channel today. Your videos are so easy to digest and have helped me understanding some complicated concepts from class. Thanks!

[@ayansinha2355]

I had seen the binary vid some time ago But that time I hadn't checked out your other other videos. Now that I have seen a number of them I just love your vids The explanation gets stored in my brain so quickly THANK YOU SO MUCH. PLS DONT EVER STOP TEACHING ON KZbin EVER AND YOU MUST GIVE LESSONS TO SOME PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN ALSO TEACH LIKE THIS IN THE FUTER.

[@ejh_x2]

HOW IS THIS CONTENT FREE?!?!?!?

[@dipunkumarpalia9106]

Never did I get more clear understanding on this topic , all thanks to you

[@yeturiyashwanth5056]

Bro ur the best teacher. I am doing bachelors degree in computer science these videos u make help me to gain knowledge than my college provides me Thank u a lot

[@JamesWilliams-cl2yr]

I am an eighty year old learner - this vid explanation helps bridge the age gap - very helpful - Thanks !

[@USER_S4V4NT]

i find it very fascinating how we’ve made such precise physical instruments that can store and read data constantly without damaging the disk or corrupting the data. still not the most reliable way of storing data at least in the very long term however i have read about glass storage devices called “5d optical data storage” that due to glass being an inert material and if stored properly can theoretically store data for billions of years and a single disk can store up to 360TB however data written is permanent

[@Brukrex]

The truth is that they got help making these technologies from spirits.. like demonic help. That's why they call their stuff after Greek gods and so.

[@ImmiTheKhan]

Finally, I found a person who would like to know what is happening under the hood and learn up. you are great master, please make more videos and you will sooner have a million subscribers. there is a dearth of teachers like you.

[@sophylong5940]

I'm amazed by the simple way you get to explain all this. Love it!

[@sumanthGogineni]

I'm 16 years old and curious about these freaking things....I haven't found any video regarding this topics...But finally found a legend channel H3Vtux...Bro you're really life saviour.....Thanks for this content...I have just subscribed your channel....Still keep on making these contents brother....

[@docmix]

Being rather 'ancient' in human terms, I have been trying understand the workings of computers for over half a century now - without much success! Your lucid explanation, however, gave me an 'Aha' moment and, having subscribed, I look forward to learning much more from your beautifully presented tutorials. Thank you very much.🙏

[@hiiithr6388]

Thanks a ton. Not many people can explain this in a easy way. Appreciate the hard work put in making these vedios. Liked & Subscribed

[@GRZESIEK-cs6kd]

This is the best video about magnetic hard drives I found on YT!

[@jack8356]

i really like how you explain things i could unstand more than the other videos ive seen

[@vpsjdon]

One of the most informative videos I've ever seen. I have two questions, potentially dumb ones but I'm still going to ask: 1. When you're taking about " positive or negative charge" on the magnet, we're talking about polarity here, right? Is this the same thing as calling the poles "south" or "north"? 2. How do the regions make sure their polarity or the electrical charge they've received does not cross over to their adjacent regions? I mean do they have some kind of potential "wall" to prevent accidental spillage of charge?

[@mazarinee]

1. yes 2. It doesnt spill to other places, just like how CPUs, GPUs, etc pack millions (sometimes billions) of transistors into a very very tight space for even a simple DIY curcuit

[@TheSmilePerson]

5:14 this was what I exactly did for my gaming pc build. Since I was on a tight budget, I got a 512 GB NVMe SSD for my OS and Programs, then also got one seagate barracuda 1TB HDD for huge storage.

[@Ali107]

In a game called "The Powder Toy" I made a storage drive that can store 128 bytes of data.

[@Mahmoud-ir5nt]

how did you make it? Is there an online guide or something that I can refer to?

[@mazarinee]

@@Mahmoud-ir5nt im assuming he is using filt tech: filt can storage i think 1 byte of data. he hooked up 128 filt to some machine and it go brrr (refer to powder toy wiki)

[@reviewneo1449]

You know , you're one of the genius minded in the world . You are making a difference. Thank you very very much. I hope that your dreams came true .

[@ivan_ivan0v_]

Excellent job! You explain everything in such an understandable way! Go on!

[@elturko58]

I really wish you would have made this videos when i was still at highschool. You're explaining it much better than my profs. Please keep up the good work

[@woody5012]

Your videos are always very well explained, the graphics are fantastic too. Cheers!

[@robertbullard8179]

Hey bud A link to good books and texts explaining more than what you need to know on computers would be cool

[@nabeeltaher5534]

Bro please explain how data is stored in SSD

[@atharva.16__]

Yes please

[@mazarinee]

t flip flop way: computer downloads program/etc. this is better for an sr flip flop but anyways: it sends binary to the t flip flops. then a t flip flop is triggered, it updates: 0 -> 1, 1 -> 0. so basically computer gets a group of un-used t flip flops and gives them binary

[@uditgavasane7559]

Awesome knowledge, it's like power running through my veins.

how do you select a computer? what is RAM and basically how much memory is good?

[@galfajon1732]

Doesn't the disk read changes in magnetic flux, not just the charge (a change in polarity is a 1 and a lack of change is a 0, basically).

[@H3Vtux]

Yes, that is what the term "charge" refers to here. For script purposes it's a lot easier than saying "magnetic orientation".

[@galfajon1732]

@@H3Vtux I guess. If I didn't have a book on hand I would've understood it as "positive polarity means 1". Either way thanks for the great video!

[@H3Vtux]

@@galfajon1732 Thanks! To clarify whether a magnetic pull is positive or negative it's a 1. It's the lack of charge that represents a 0 (assuming the active high signal method is being used). It's very difficult to simplify things while also keeping the information accurate. If you want to know a bit more about how the magnetization of the regions on the disk work look into "faradays law".

Can you corrupt your data by having strong magnets near the disc?

[@graphian8990]

Why we use magnetic drive instead of solid drive I think due to large space/capacity of MD/magnetic drive

[@ahmedfaisal5678]

Sir can u please make a video that shows how ones and zeros are stored in the cpu or ram or hard drive internally and how it fetches the data.
